Puzzle Time

We have been accused of being non-cerebral, base and even dull, so I plan to add a little intellectual culture with a fun puzzle. Don't expect New York Times crossword or anything impossible like that. We don't have aspirations that high. (Or puzzle writers that smart)
What we do have is a variation of the ancient Japanese number puzzle that we call Pseudo-ku.
Solve it! If you dare....


The idea behind the puzzle is simple. Just look at the square grid and insert the numbers from 1 to 9. But wait, each large square can only contain each number from 1 to 9 only once. We have inserted a few numbers to get you started.
